    Hi CRM_Dev1,

    window.showModalDialog was deprecated and now Google Chrome v37 disabled the showModalDialog API.

    You can use Xrm.Internal.openDialog that is internal method of CRM 2013 to open the model like CRM 2013.

    var DialogOption = new Xrm.DialogOptions;
    DialogOption.width = 500; DialogOption.height = 420;
    Xrm.Internal.openDialog("URL TO open", 
                            DialogOption, 
                            null, null, 
                            CallbackFunction);
    function CallbackFunction(returnValue){ }

    It is unsupported and it may be changed by MS in future. I am not sure how it will behave in mobile application.

    Thanks!

    you can restore it using this registry fix:

    if it doesn't work you can try the policy method:

    Thanks Kalim, It was helpful. I found blog based on your info to open the lookup using Xrm.Internal.openDialog to show model dialogue. It worked without any issue.

    Guido, I didn't try your solution as it will require change on every users machine. thanks
